Mr. Chavez....

I have followed Hugo Chavez's career with great interest. He's a great showman and appears to want to be the Fidel of the 21st Century. The problem is that he's acting like a fool. In the name of being a progressive, he's amassing personal power as never before--thinking that he has all the answers. What he has to realize that the oil wealth he is currently so fond of spending away will not last forever. Also, I commend King Juan Carlos for telling Hugo Chavez to "shut up". The man is out of control. I do hold one person responsible for this: George W. Bush.
